State Planning Board Vice-Chairman B. Vinod Kumar and senior TRS leader M. Srinivas Reddy submitted the documents at the EC office in New Delhi.
They informed that the party had
only sought the change in the name and not fresh registration. They said, there will be no change in the party symbol car’ and colour pink’ which will remain the same. The party will now carry out its activities extensively at the national level with official recognition.
